“…[5,7] The most commonly involved lobe is the right lower lobe (38%) as it has more blood flow than the others. [5,8] In our study, the most commonly involved lobes were the right lower and left upper lobes (24%). In the literature, involvement of the liver in lung HD patients occurs at a rate of 6-11%, [5,6] and our rate of 8% was within this same range.…”

“…However, 27% of patients were asymptomatic. Pulmonary hydatid cysts rupture in about a third of patients, 6 releasing a highly antigenic fluid into the bronchus, which can cause secondary hydatid spread, asphyxia, anaphylactic shock, acute respiratory failure, massive hemoptysis, and circulatory collapse. Ruptured pulmonary hydatid cysts generally present with chest pain (49%), cough (46%), dyspnea (42%), hemoptysis (33%), fever (36%), and sputum production (33%), whereas only 3% of patients with ruptured pulmonary hydatid cyst are asymptomatic.…”

In some cases, when all the contents of the cyst are released and the cyst is almost completely filled with air, a thin-walled hollow air-filled cavity or tension air bag 6 can be diagnosed as pneumothorax. This appearance in our patient led to the initial diagnosis of pneumothorax.…”
